John Hadley Obituary
A Celebration of the Life of John B. "Jack" Hadley will take place on Saturday, December 30, 2017. There will be visitation at Reeb Funeral Home, 5712 North Main Street, Sylvania, from 10 a.m. to 12 noon, followed by a short service. Immediately afterward, there will be a celebratory lunch with storytelling at Highland Meadows Golf Club, 7455 Erie Street, Sylvania, beginning at 1:00 p.m.
Jack died peacefully in his sleep on November 22, 2017, one week before his 95th birthday. Several weeks prior to this milestone, Jack's two granddaughters, Erika and Stefanie, had requested short video submissions from other family members and caregiver Samantha that detailed their various special memories and recollections of life with Jack over the years as an early 95th birthday gift. The results were compiled into a wonderful and meaningful family memento that Jack himself was able to enjoy watching on son John's computer many times prior to his passing. Jack is even featured in some of the video segments, which will be playing as a highlight of his Celebration of Life on December 30th. We are all grateful to have had this opportunity to share with him our love.
A complete obituary and also a feature article detailing the life and career of John B. Hadley were published in the Toledo Blade on Sunday, December 3rd, 2017, and can be viewed online.

Our condolences the family and friends. We know the value of family, in fact at
"Eph 3:15 --to whom every family in heaven and on earth owes its name." We know it to be a gift from our lovely Heavenly Father. 1Jo 4:11 "Beloved ones, if this is how God loved us, then we are also under obligation to love one another." Our hopes is that this time join family and friends closer together. With Love and that we continue to draw closer to our Heavenly Father.
